timber homes

Wooden residential structures

Timber homes are houses built primarily from heavy wooden beams and posts, with the structural framework left visible rather than hidden behind walls.

The term encompasses traditional post-and-beam construction and log cabins, as well as modern timber-frame houses that showcase the wood's natural beauty.

They bought land in Montana to build a timber home.
